Revelation 18:4 KJV says “and I heard another voice from heaven, saying, Come out of her, my people, that ye be not partakers of her sins, and that ye receive not of her plagues.”
As Adventists we like to quote this when talking about calling people out of the world etc, we even profess to apply it to ourselves as we grow in faith and retreat further away from worldly influences. One thing we are not good at is applying this to the organisation of our denomination. God forbid should we voice concerns about unholy alliances or erroneous actions of individual or corporate leadership! We put people and titles on pedestals, and should anyone call out an error they are immediately labelled as “troublers” “accusers of the brethren” “divisive” and other references to satan too.
Ironically so many prophets in the Bible were rejected, persecuted and even killed for calling out the errors of leadership whether they were kings or religious leaders. In the Old Testament Elijah, Jeremiah and Isaiah were ignored, derided and persecuted for calling leadership to repentance. In the New Testament Jewish leaders murdered Jesus, Stephen and others for calling out their heinous errors and crying out for their repentance.
In all of these cases the messengers were not pointing fingers or trying to cause embarrassment, they were earnestly trying to help those in power to see their errors and to repent so that they could be saved. They were trying to stop them from leading people further astray. Many times, these messages caused division as some heeded the truths and returned to Biblical ways but unfortunately many pinned their loyalty on the men in charge instead of God. As individuals we need to ask ourselves honestly “Who do I follow?”
There are faithful brothers and sisters who are sounding the trumpets, calling leadership to repentance as heinous errors are being uncovered. They are crying out to our leadership to “come out of her my people” as we see how the organisation of the SDA church is working with and under the unholy United Nations! The UN was started by and is run by occultists. It is the organisation that is building and implementing the global beast system leading to the mark of the beast! Why are we in bed with them?! Ask ourselves the question in 2 Corinthians 6:15 “And what concord hath Christ with Belial? or what part hath he that believeth with an infidel?” This needs to end, immediately! We should have no relations with such entities. I have a YouTube playlist of important videos that outline the relationship between the UN and our church and the problems this has caused and will cause in the future here: Religious Liberty Playlist please take the time to watch the videos especially “Unequally Yoked” as they give important information. Recently it has come to light that ADRA (Adventist Development and Relief Agency) has joined hands with the Jesuits (Source)! The very order created by Papal Rome to counter the reformation! Seriously?! Especially after their unholy alliance with USAID was exposed there seems to be no discernment when joining forces with ungodly entities. As the old saying goes “Money talks…”
Those calling for the end of these alliances are being persecuted, slandered, accused, derided and silenced. Why are we incapable of reflecting on their concerns? Why do we jump to accusations of “their causing division”? Have we studied our Bibles? Did we skip the parts where it says “for the word of God is quick, and powerful, and sharper than any twoedged sword, piercing even to the dividing asunder of soul and spirit, and of the joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart” in Hebrews 4:12 or where Jesus says “think not that I am come to send peace on earth: I came not to send peace, but a sword. For I am come to set a man at variance against his father, and the daughter against her mother, and the daughter in law against her mother in law. And a man’s foes shall be they of his own household” in Matthew 10:34-36? In Acts 14 we see that the people of the city were divided by the truth. Those who stayed loyal to the Pharisees (leadership) and those who accepted the truth and chose to be loyal to Jesus.
The Bible doesn’t call for unity by compromising, turning blind eyes to error or letting sin/apostasy slide. It calls for us to be united in Jesus and thus in His truth. Jesus through Paul beseeches us in 1 Corinthians 1:10 “Now I beseech you, brethren, by the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that ye all speak the same thing, and that there be no divisions among you; but that ye be perfectly joined together in the same mind and in the same judgment.” We see in the beginning of Acts that when the followers of Jesus became united in Him and His truth the early rain was poured out on them all. We’re waiting for the latter rain but those who reject Gods truth and who compromise for the sake of unity will not receive the blessing.
May SDAs do not realise that they are at a crossroad. We talk of the shaking, and this is a major component of it. God is sifting His professed followers. Sifting those who are truly loyal to Him from those who are loyal to leadership. Sifting those who want to unite under Biblical truth from those who want to unite under compromise. Sifting those who want to be separate from the world from those who want to benefit from being friends with the world. We cannot serve God and mammon. We cannot serve two masters. We are to be a peculiar people. We are to be separate from the world.
It’s not too late. As individuals, congregations, conferences, unions and divisions we can pray the prayer of Daniel 9, we can call those in error to repentance and call for our organisation to cut all ties with these unholy entities by sending emails, letters etc. How can we expect others to heed our call to “come out of her” if we don’t listen to it ourselves?
